What I Can't Do

Even though I want to, with every fiber of my being, I cannot put my kids in a bubble to protect them. It's counter-productive.

This parenting stuff is hard when you're trying to be authentic. I would venture to guess that it's hard even when you're being fake. So, I'll just say that parenting is hard.

Even in the bubble, it would be hard because I would just be creating kids that were just like me and these two, they need more than that.

They need community so that they can try on new ideas- ideas that may scare me, ideas that may challenge me, or change me.

So, no bubble.

No safety net.

No idea what I'd doing.
